you mean like "cd projects" to move into the projects folder ?
then cd xxxxxxxx where xxxxxxxx is the project folder name ?
You'll probably want to do a "sudo ls" in the project folder to see the names of the project folders.
That'll prompt for your password before showing the folders.
Choice of editors, eg "sudo gedit app_config.xml"

/var is in the root directory so you have to use sudo for root permission.

Presuming Ubuntu
either: sudo gedit .. then open and navigate to the file you want to edit.
or: sudo nautilus .. then navigate to the directory as you would in windows and then right click, edit the file.

thanks you for the help it looks hard but once its explained its just as easy as working a windows system , infact its easer as you don't have to "save as " all files and name it config_app.xml lol

this could be interesting, would it be just as simple as an online chat room for everybody to natter on?

Could be a simple chatroom, might be a nice alternative to another set of forums however forums are a bit more structured. Could maybe pull in some stats for the live sprint, provided there's some API that can be tapped.

Leiden Classical never has much work, which makes it such a ridiculous choice for a "sprint".
Plus the project is limited to 128 tasks, per user, per day .. the chance of that however would be a fine thing.

Due to spammers automatically creating accounts, account creation can and will be disabled at our discretion. Furthermore, this project is reaching its ending phase probably somewere in 2018. This means as long as the software runs and the OS receives updates (EOL 2020), the project will be maintained, but automatic work creation will stop for sure."

So registrations were disabled a few months ago and the project is nearing the end of it's life.

I could login using another account to help the team numbers out.

So how are these projects selected for Formula Boinc? Do they approach the project owners? Are they chosen on merit? ie for what benefit they would be globally?
